POST data to api using nodejs for Outlook Add-ins - http-post

I want to fetch api and POST data to that api in nodejs which i have created using yo generator.

You can use the Fetch API which provides an interface for fetching resources (including across the network). It will seem familiar to anyone who has used XMLHttpRequest, but the new API provides a more powerful and flexible feature set.

How to work in Laravel app with external api?

in my Laravel 5.7/mysql app I need to make external api to read some data from external
app with get request and to write some data to my db with post request.
Which tools/scripts are there for this and how to make these requests safe?
MODIFIED :
Thanks for feedbacks, but looks like I badly put my question
The external app(I do not know what is it written with) need to read data from my app
and write data to my Laravel 5 app.
And how have I to test these requests while on development locally ?
Looks like I have to use Guzzle as in provided link?
Which steps have I to take for safety on my side?
Thanks!
These three libraries are popular for your use-case:
Guzzle
Curl
zttp
If the database is local you can use Eloquent, If not, remote connection to that database may help. otherwise, if you only have API access you should consume eighter of above libraries or any alternative options to make an HTTP request your application might require.
Security-wise, as long as you are only making a request to a remote server, the Suggested way is to store any key or secret string related to authorizing your request (if applicable) in your .env to prevent it from committed to your version control systems. Needless to say to always handle any possible HTTP error your remote API might throw in order to prevent any unwanted error on your application side.
And as Abir Adak mentioned in the comment check this thread for further details.
Updated Answer: On the case of MODIFIED part, generally you have 3 popular options,
REST API
This blog post is a detailed walkthrough written for Laravel
This one from Stack Overflow can help you with designing you API
This last one can help you to develop a widely accepted API response and endpoints by following its specifications.
GraphQL
Can save some time for developing your API, but I suggest to make sure that the consumers of your API are happy to use this option.
GraphQ
Laravel Package for GraphQL
If using Laravel isn't a must, and you are using PostgreSQL, you might want to look at Hasura as well.
SOAP
Have little knowledge on this option for Laravel, just know folks coding using C# and .net are happier to expose their API with this protocol. read more about it on WikiPedia
Postman is a great tool for testing your API or any other API.

Use existing graphql api in my laravel project

I am testing a graphql api and I want to integrate with my system in laravel. Is there any documentation to do this? If possible to consume and send the values ​​in graphql?
Note: I wanted to do it right
The question is too generic.
First of all, I recommend to check the official site: https://graphql.org/learn/
If you are going to consume an already existing graphql, you need a graphql client library.
Check a good list of client libraries: https://graphql.org/code/#graphql-clients
Client libraries have good documentation on how to install and use them.
If you are going to create/provide your own graphql api endpoint (that is a different story), you need a graphql server library.
Server libraries: https://graphql.org/code/#php
Laravel package (a wrapper for https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php): https://github.com/rebing/graphql-laravel
try this library https://github.com/rebing/graphql-laravel, it's simple with good documentation

Is it possible to access the adwords API directly through javascript?

I would like to access the adwords API through a simple single page web application using javascript. I would like to dynamically stop and start some of my adwords campaigns.
I can't seem to find any documentation on the REST endpoints for the API - only documentation for the various libraries.
Is it possible to do this through javascript only?
The current Adwords API is a SOAP-based interface, so there are no REST endpoints to use. It's of course still possible to construct SOAP messages and call operations without using one of the provided libraries.
Having said that, the next evolution of the API (the "Google Ads API") will support both gRPC and JSON REST-based communication, which would probably fit your scenario better. It's not yet ready for production use, however.

OData v4.0 via ASP.NET WebAPI - Can Excel consume a service?

I have built a few WebAPIs since it was born, including one supporting OData URL filters when that was new. I see now that OData over WebAPI has matured, I see it can serve service metadata.
Is it complete enough for Excel or other OData client tooling to plug and play as if it were a full WCF Data Service (ye olde Astoria)?
That's it. Thanks
OData V1-3 services can be consumed by the Data tab and Power Pivot data source import of Excel. While Excel's support for importing data from OData V4 services will rely on Power Query. That support is planned targeting early next year according to this: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/2169958f-9e2a-4fc2-a844-c0dce4c17a19/support-of-odata-v40?forum=powerquery
It is. In the past you had to do the right configuration or do a workaround to populate the OData feed from Web API correctly, to be able to consume it from Excel. Suprotim Agarwal wrote an excellent blog post about all the steps necessary to consume the feed from Excel, including creating and configuring the endpoint and what the steps in Excel are.

Ruby: Fetch data from google analytics?

I want to gather google analytics data for daily/monthly report. All visitors, visitors for specific path and conversion rate. Setting for google analytics is already done (I think).
I searched ruby libraries, but many informations are out-of-dated and google api is sometimes update.
Now(2012-09-28) what library is popular? And How to get data? I searched ruby-toolbox, but both two libraries are still active?
Libralies
'garb'
https://github.com/vigetlabs/garb
'google-api-client'
http://code.google.com/p/google-api-ruby-client/
Purpose:
My first step: view data
My second step: edit data(Add note or notation)
thanks,
Google-Api-Client works fine, is an official client and is constantly updated, just check the commit logs and you will see. Note that this API is not for Google Analytics only but for any Google API that uses the Google Discovery API. You should try that.
Regardless of the client that you use make sure it's compatible with the latest version of the API. If it's built using the Google API Discovery service it's a plus because that means the client library will have support for new methods as soon as they are available. It's like an API for building API clients.
GARB on the other hand seems to be abandoned for a while and is probably missing out on several features that came recently.
Note that the Google Analytics API are currently read only. So no client library will support that since there's no API for writing annotations. There's a feature request for that though.
